Suk ChulJoo became interested in the expressive method of painting itself rather than its formative elements. Since the 1980s he has painted traditional designs on Korean jars. He has trained himself in traditional art, putting emphasis on an adaptation to nature, timelessness, and the meditative process. His jar painting, completed through several layers of brush marks, suggests the spirituality of time-honored Korean painting.

Life journal(New Paradise Scenery in Dream)
Korean ink, acrylic on canvas
95.5×161.5cm (100) (37.5x63.5in)
In Suk ChulJoo's New Scenery in Dream, painted in his peculiar, infiltrating, spreading technique, there is a subtle take on well-harmonized mountains and landscapes is unique. This work is like a traditional landscape painting, but also different. Instead of mountains and fields rendered through an overlapping of lines and planes. in his painting Suk represents the landscape through a technique of obliterating, not filling. After applying another color to the ground hue, he creates his scenes with wet brushes.
